This is by far my favourite fighter. His father was a professional boxer, his mother professional a wrestler. All of his siblings have black belts and he himself has black belt in nine different martial arts, not to mention that he's a pioneer in kickboxing. "The Jet" was made for fighting.
Undefeated, Benny is the longest reigning World Champion of all Professional Sports in history.

If you injure your right knee so that you're unable to use that leg, what do you do? You just compensate by turning the other one into a Super foot! "Superfoot" Wallace, another kickboxing pioneer and one of the few sidefacing full-contact fighters. There are a lot of instructional movies with Bill Wallace, worth watching! Some will be posted on the instructional movies section.

Time to move north to Canada. What do you get if you mix "Sugar" Ray Leonard's boxing with Bill "Superfoot" Wallace's kicks? Peter "Sugarfoot" Cunningham! If there's anyone who's Benny's equal in stand-up fighting, it's Peter Cunningham.

Let's move East to Europe or more specifically; England. Most of you probably haven't heard of Gary Daniels. Gary is an actor as well as a kickboxing world champion. Even though he stopped competing, he never stopped learning new martial arts.
